About the role

What happens after I apply?

If your application is progressed to the next stage you’ll be sent some questions to answer and, if you attain a score of nine or higher, you’ll be invited to our assessment centre. There are then another few stages before your final pre-employment checks and, hopefully, getting assigned your collar number.
